I misread your comment as meaning you thought being in the article was the only way to see the image. And I was trying to point out, wanting to read it or not, you can’t avoid the image on the front page. Upon rereading, I get what you’re saying. Sorry.

4 month old spoilers are not remotely the same as 30 year old ones and you know it.

My point is not that the chains are obtained post-game. My point is this article plasters the front page of Kotaku with a spoilery image of them without users being able to avoid it, no matter what the article is actually about. If you come INTO the article, different story. But the site itself just displays a big…

You’re implying users of the site have control over what gets posted to the front page. As if not wanting to be spoiled magically means they won’t see the lead image as they use Kotaku.

You seem to think everyone plays games immediately upon release AND that anyone who hasn’t somehow has control over what spoiler-filled imagery they do or do not view when it’s tossed onto the front page of this site without warning or concern for those who may find said imagery spoilery.

It’s weird that you think users of the site have a choice as to whether or not they see the header image when it’s plastered on the main page without their knowledge.

I think I was around 60 or 70 for the Platinum. Though I didn’t keep very good track.

Small or not, how are people who haven’t played it supposed to avoid the spoiler when it’s plastered on the main site? It was a pretty big surprise to me that they brought the blades back after it seemed like they weren’t coming back in the game.

The only thing you’re more efficient at killing than Kratos’ foes seems to be major story-related spoilers straight away in the lead image. And, later, in the second half of the text without warning.

How’d they know it was him?

I happen to think it’s more nuanced than that, but I understand that point of view. I went there, I know how god-like he was.

You don’t have many Catholic friends, do you?

You realize the course of action that Paterno took is the NCAA’s sanctioned code of conduct/order of operations/whatever the hell you call it for such matters, right? (Or at least it was as of ~2014.) They implemented it after all the Sandusky stuff broke. His actions were, more or less, the model.

How is theirs a failed dynasty? They’re 50/50 on presidential attempts/wins by family. A VERY small number of families have ever done better. The vast majority do far FAR worse.

It’s real solid. Not what I expected, as it’s far more story-focused than I thought it would be, but it’s real solid. It’s like a love letter to classic Genesis and Super Nintendo-era side scrollers, but with a more modern take on storytelling.

This is the second family of Redskins Peterson is a proud member of.

I played Rogue Legacy on Vita years ago. It’s actually the first rogue like game I ever played that got me hooked. I’m quite surprised it hasn’t made the jump over yet. My fingers are crossed it’s because they’re working on a sequel that’ll land on the system instead.

You’ve never tried buying an Activision product, have you? Their stuff tends to hold value at near-Nintendo levels.

Sony (and Nintendo!) really need to follow Microsoft’s lead with the custom color options. I’d pay a small premium over the standard $65 for a DS4 colored the way I want, direct from the manufacturer. I don’t want to have to buy and then ship a controller to a 3rd party modder.

By the end of the year my Switch will almost certainly consist of rogue likes, Hollow Knight (it’s already sitting there tempting me), Owlboy (was so good!), and Smash Bros. I haven’t even bought Odyssey or BotW because a friend is letting me borrow his hard copies.
